| Actually, crime is not as big of an issue in many big cities as people seem to believe. If you look at the FBI stats, you're less likely to have a crime committed against you in downtown SD or NYC than you are in many parts of the San Fernando Valley.
Granted, I'll take the marginal increase in crime living in many cities as the price of being able to live a metropolitan life. I don't care how much money a city of 120,000 pumps into its museums and opera houses, it ain't NYC, SF, or LA. |
